Chapter Two: The Normal Kingdom
The island can be seen with the waves going crazy like before. The lights are on and we see Solomon fast asleep. After a while, Solomon wakes up and sees us. "Ah, hello there. I hope I didn't keep you for too long now. For it is time for another part of the story isn't it?"
Solomon got comfortable in his chair and used Psychic to get the book from before. He looks at the book and smiles. "Ah, here we are. I'm about to tell you about the Normal Kingdom."
00000000000000
We see a large gray city. The sun is shining, and we see all sorts of various Normal Type Pokemon playing around. The Normal kingdom seems to only have villages. No special landmark, like any big forest, or big mountain areas.

Solomon speaking:
Here is the Normal Kingdom. This kingdom no offense, doesn't really have anything special. It doesn't have any large oceans, nor large forests. No giant mountain areas, or giant buildings.
No, this is a kingdom is the most "normal" out of them all, no pun intended. The Pokemon who inhabit this kingdom are all content on how they live their lives. They all have their jobs, their schools, everything that they need. They don't need no special attraction, they all enjoy living in this calm, serene, kingdom.
The only Pokemon that live here, are Pokemon with the Normal typing. Now, I know you all have your questions. How do the dual-type Pokemon live their lives?
Well, that answer is simple. You see, dual-type Pokemon can choose on which kingdom they wish to live in. For example, a Sableye can choose to live in the Dark Kingdom, or the Ghost Kingdom. But whichever kingdom he chooses to live, he must stick to. He cannot live in both kingdoms, only one.
Now, back to the Normal Kingdom, this kingdom is the only one that is truly neutral. Meaning, if there were any wars, then the Normal Kingdom would not take any side. They only choose to attack in order to defend themselves from enemy kingdoms.
But that has never come to happen, because the Normal Kingdom has never made any enemies, or would have any reason to attack them. Even the Bug Kingdom would not want to attack them, probably because they already have their own issues to attend to. But that is for another time.
The Normal Kingdom also does trade with the other kingdoms. They are the only kingdom to ever trade items with strange souvenirs. These souvenirs may be worthless at first, but these items prove to be VERY valuable. Like Relic Statues or Relic Crowns.
Oh, but how could I forget? Here in the Normal Kingdom, lies the castle that rules over all of it. And in this castle, lies it's Normal Queen. Let's go see her, shall we?

We see someone walking towards a big door. He was a bipedal, reptilian Pokémon that is usually green. On either sides of its head are yellow frills, which are connected by lines to his yellow lips and rings around its eyes. There are small ridges on its shoulders and a red zigzag stripe around its midsection. The hands and feet have three short digits each, and he has yellow soles. He also has a long skinny tail that is usually curled tightly in a spiral.
He was a Kecleon, and he had a gray robe, with the Normal symbol on it. He slowly approached the door and knocked on it.
"Come in!" Said a very sweet voice. The Kecleon opened the door, revealing the large throne room.
It was all grey, with drapes, curtains, and classy knight armor around the room. It had grey decorations, with large windows that shows the entire Normal Kingdom. There was also a large gray throne for the ruler, but she wasn't on it.
She was actually looking out the window, until she met eyes with the Kecleon. She was a bipedal, rabbit-like Pokémon with a dark brown fur and a short, round tail. She black markings on the inner edge of her eyes, and long tufts of cream-colored fur above them, and a small, pink nose. Her long ears, which bend shortly above her head, end in fluffy, cream-colored fur. Her head, body, and hips are covered in dark brown fur, while her wrists and lower legs are covered in fluffy, cream-colored fur similar to her ears.
She was a Lopunny, with grey eyes instead of the usual pink eyes. She also had a gray cape, with the Normal symbol on the back, and a large grey dress.
Her name was Roxanne, and she is queen of the Normal Kingdom. She looked at the Kecleon and smiled, brightly. "Why hello there Steven. I assume that you have news for me?" Roxanne asked in a very kind voice.
Steven smiled and bowed. "Of course your majesty, as Royal Advisor, one of my tasks is to inform you of special events. And today my queen, is Summit Day."
Roxanne gasped with joy. "Summit Day?! I love Summit Day! I get to meet all the Kings and Queens in one room again! Oh I'm going to love this day!"
Steven frowned when Roxanne was talking about how much she loves Summit Day. Roxanne notices this and looks at Steven worryingly. "What's wrong Steven? Don't you like Summit Day?"
Steven sighed. "I would your majesty, but sadly I can't. You know, because of the Dark Kingdom and their ruler."
Roxanne smiled. "That's okay Steven, I heard that Dark Kingdom is getting a new Ruler. So maybe it won't be so bad this time."
Steven sighed again. "I wish I was as optimistic as you are my queen, but I grow more doubt in me every with every new Dark Ruler. You know how it goes, for five generations, every Dark Ruler would want to wage war on everyone, trying to take all the territory for themselves. It always comes to this, and when this new Dark Ruler comes to the Summit House, I'm afraid that Pokemon may just want to wage war again on everyone. Many lives are lost every time a war with the Dark Kingdom is involved, and in the end, no one is the victor. So that is why I am doubtful for this new Dark ruler. For all we know, he could be another crazed Ruler, who wants it all for himself."
Roxanne makes a small smile and walks to Steven to place a hand on his shoulder. "I understand your doubts, but I think we just need to have faith in this new Dark Ruler. Who knows, the new Ruler just may surprise us yet."
Steven looks at Roxanne and smiles. "Thank you my queen, you somehow always find a way to make everyone smile."
Roxanne giggles. "Why of course, that's one of the many things I'm good at after all. Now, let's go tell the great Pokemon of the kingdom the news, shall we?" Steven nods. "I'll go do that right now my queen."
With that, Steven left to get all the Pokemon of the kingdom to gather up at the castle. Roxanne exited her throne room to enter outside the castle to see everyone from below.
All the Pokemon were cheering her name, praises her with many complements. Roxanne blushed from all the complements and raised her hand. The moment she did that, everyone silenced, awaiting to hear what she has to say.
"Everyone, I am here to tell you, that today is Summit Day! That means, your queen has to depart the kingdom to go to the Citadel! But I don't want you all to become saddened by this news! So while I'm gone, I'm having the Royal embassy threw a festival for you all to enjoy!"
Everyone cheered at this news and shouted louder than before. "I will see you all everyone! And I love you all!" Roxanne shouted through the shouts.
She went back to her castle and eventually went out the main door to walk to her carriage. While she walked out the castle, everyone was shouting her name, giving her praises and giving her many thanks for all that she has done.
She waved at everyone and gave them all air kisses before she entered the carriage, and started it's departure for the Citadel.
00000000000000
Solomon speaking:
Now while Roxanne is taking her carriage to the Citadel, let me tell you about the kingdom's customs, and Roxanne herself. Now every king and queen are given Advisors, so that they could help regulate with the kingdom's finance, give war advise, of course, give advice on certain things, and to be great company and maybe a great friend to the king or queen.
Every Advisor is give a robe so that others know of their status. Now, Advisors can both be either chosen by the kings or queens, or given to them if necessary. Roxanne chose Steven to be her Advisor because she wanted to help Steven have enough money to support his family.
Now Roxanne herself is one of the most kind Pokemon to ever rule a kingdom. She cares deeply for her subjects and thinks nothing less of them. She helps with charity, nursing homes, and helps orphanages find loving parents to adopt their orphans.
She is also friends to many of the other kings and queens of Poketopia. She is everyone's friend, and no one's enemy.
Now I see that you're wondering about Roxanne's grey eyes? Well, when a King and Queen receives their powers, there eyes change to the color of their typing. So that's why Roxanne's eyes are grey instead of pink, it is a sign of their status as ruler of their respective kingdom.
End of Solomon speaking:

Time flies and we see Roxanne's grey carriage stop at the Summit House. Roxanne and Steven depart from the carriage and waves the carriage off.
"Make sure you come back when we're ready!" Steven shouted. The rider gives them a thumbs off as it rides the carriage away.
Roxanne looks at the Summit House and smiles. "It feels good to be back. Ready for another Summit?" Steven nods. "Of course your majesty. May this Summit be better than the last, for our sake."
As Roxanne and Steven enter the Summit House they walk into the many rooms, waving to other Pokemon as they pass by. They meet a waiting room and sees a Lilligant with a special dress.
Margaret sees the two and smiles. "Why welcome Queen Roxanne, I hope the ride here was pleasant?" Roxanne nods. "It was indeed. Thank you for asking."
Margaret bows. "But of course, you are royalty after all. Now excuse me as I tell Chancellor Jaba that you're here."
She leaves the room with the two by themselves. "It seems that we're the first ones here." Steven commented. "It appears so." Roxanne. Replied. "That's good, then that means we can see everyone's arrival and welcome them."
Margaret comes back with a slightly annoyed look. But loses that look when she looks at the two. "I am dearly sorry Queen Roxanne, but it seems that Chancellor Jaba has to finish some preparations before you may enter."
Roxanne waves it off. "That is alright dear, I'm sure that the Chancellor will finish the preparations soon." Margaret bows. "I am thankful for your patience. May you wait here until the Chancellor finishes?" "That will be splendid." Roxanne replies.
Steven sighs and shakes his head. "Great, things are already going wrong. I have a bad feeling about this."
Roxanne giggles and rubs Steven's head. "Do not worry about it Steven, it is just a minor setback that's all. I am sure that the Chancellor will finish in no time." "If you say so." Steven says.
It was about ten minutes later until everyone heard someone shouting. "Margaret! Have the Queen come here! Everything is ready for the Summit!" Jaba shouted through the door. "Yes Chancellor Jaba!" Margaret shouted back.
Margaret then turns to the two and smiles. "It seems that Chancellor Jaba is ready for you now." Roxanne smiles. "Excellent, then we'll be there now. See Steven, I told you that he would finish in no time." "Indeed you did my queen." Steven replied.
The enter enter the room and sees the oval room, with Chancellor Jaba at the big chair. Chancellor Jaba looks at the two and smiles. "Ah, why if it isn't Queen Roxanne. I hope that you didn't have to wait too long?"
Roxanne giggles and shakes her head. "It is quite alright Chancellor Jaba, I understand how over worked you can be. I mean, I myself have been unprepared for most of the things I do."
Jaba nervously laughs. "Yeah, it is a little stressful at times, but I can handle it. I am the Chancellor after all. Now why don't you take a seat Queen Roxanne? The other kings and queens should arrive very shortly." Jaba said as he motions the queen to one of the chairs.
Roxanne nods. "I will, thank you Chancellor Jaba." Roxanne takes a seat in of the chairs at the oval table, while Steven walked to the wall and watched from there. Only the kings and queens can discuss of their topics. The Advisors are just there to make sure that their king or queen is safe.
"So, what do you think of Summit Day?" Roxanne asked. "Well Roxanne, I hope that this Summit will go just fine. The new Dark Ruler has been announced, so I'm hoping that this Summit will turn out more peaceful than the last." Jaba commented.
"Exactly! See Steven?! If the Chancellor has hope, than you should too!" Roxanne shouted to Steven. Steven rolled his eyes. "It doesn't hurt to be a little skeptical my queen."
"But hope is always stronger than doubt." Roxanne pointed out. "Maybe, but too much hope can lead you into trouble." Steven warned. Roxanne shook her head as she turns to the table to wait for the next king or queen.
Moments later, Margaret enter the room. "The Fighting Queen is here Chancellor Jaba." Jaba smiled. "Ah good! Let her come in! That'll be sixteen more kings and queens that we have to wait for!"
Margaret nodded and left the room. Roxanne smiled. "The Fighting Queen is here?! That is great news! I can't wait to meet her again! Even though it has only been a week since the last time we met!"
"Yes, two queens are already here. Let's hope the other kings and queens can arrive shortly." Jaba advised.
The doors open as the Fighting Queen and her Advisor has now entered the room.

Solomon closes the book and puts it away with Psychic. "That ends our introduction of the Normal Kingdom and their Queen. Roxanne was known as a great Queen to her subjects, and also a great friend to the other kings and queens."
"So next time, we'll get to see the Fighting Kingdom, and their iron-willed Queen. So I'll see you all later everyone. Goodbye everyone, Till we meet again."
Solomon goes to sleep. While one by one, all the lights go out, with only the stars showering it's light on this one island. In the middle of the ocean, with no one knowing of it's location.
